As an interested home cook and a fan of ATK, I was delighted to see this fast paced, high end competition that is fun to watch, introduced me to new ingredients and actually taught me a thing or two. The judges are amazing in their ability to hone in on the good and the bad. The tone remains instructive. No humiliation! The show moves quickly, as each episode has two challenges. The food photography is absolutely amazing. Shot in America's Test Kitchen, the pantry will make your mouth water, and the stations are near each other, creating a homey comfy environment. This show has really upped the ante and moved competitive cooking to the next generation!
